I did mention I was behind on photos. ..only my papilio is really still in bloom. Here are seed pods forming from crosses of my other 3 varieties:



All 4 of my ('pink star' NOID x red NOID) seem to have taken.

My red NOID x h. striatum didn't take as well, but my red NOID blooms were already fading when I pollinated them. There is one pod forming from that cross, though:



I have 6 h. striatum x 'pink star' that are looking good so far:




And here is one pod of h. striatum x red NOID:



(Sorry for the blurry photos, but sometimes my phone doesn't take clear up-close pictures in low light conditions.)

Well you got some nice seed pods, so hopefully you will have some interesting seedlings.

Lovely blooms Barbara and DND!

Nothing new here...
2 ft of snow and--
just the second bloom stalk of exotic star (missed the first one), but here we have bonus hibiscus for a little extra winter busting fun

nice photo, 2 feet of snow, no thank you

Had to post this photo. This is the fifth bloom on the Candy Amadeus. The other four blooms were white with just a few tiny pink tips. This one has to be a throw back to a parent. I'm wondering if the breeder started with a pink and white double, and bred to gradually lose the pink, in an effort to get a white double. It will be interesting to watch it age, to see if the pink fades.

Barbara, it's still a lovely bloom, I like it both ways.

It is indeed very lovely.

Pink Princess from White Flower Farms. Midsized coral pink with pale green center. Photo didn't show the true coral undertone. All 4 blooms opened on the same day, giving it a particularly lush appearance. I'm hoping that this one will do well in the garden.

That's a very pretty one, Barbara.

It's a little late now, I know, but after looking through all of the gorgeous blooms you all have been having--Wowza

White seedling 9537, AKA Mintha, my name for her, 4th year blooming.

Margaret, that is really nice. I'm impressed that this is the 4th year for it.

Thanks Barbara, so far only one bloom stalk, but it was a good one.

Margaret, it's beautiful! What a pretty white!

Thank you DND, I agree it is a pretty white!

Good job Margret 9537 still going strong

Thanks Dirt!

It's lovely, Margaret--and that's great it is still going after so many seasons!
